Lake Powell Potatoes

Deliciously seasoned red potatoes cooked to a  perfection! Add some cheese at the end to make these potatoes magical!  I came upon this simple recipe at Lake Powell where my Uncle had perfected the art to making delicious cheesy potatoes in the middle of the desert over a fire! Well I wanted a taste of Lake Powell right at home so that is when I decided to make this recipe over the grill and it was easy, fun and so yummy!

Wash red potatoes and cut them into fourths. You will do about 3 potatoes per person. Then place them on a sheet of tinfoil big enough to be able to fold the sides in at the end.
 
Generously season potatoes with Season All.  You want it to look like it was almost too much! Then take about a half stick of butter and slice it into pieces and drop evenly over potatoes. You may also add a sliced onion for extra flavor.
Fold the tin foil sides in.
Take another piece of tin foil and wrap again so that its sealed.
Place on grill at 400 degrees. Since all grills cook differently to find the right heat seating for your potatoes check on them after 10 minutes and if  you hear them sizzling than its a perfect temperature. If there boiling way loud you need to turn the heat down a bit! Cook 20 minutes and then flip and cook another 20 minutes! After 40 minutes your potatoes will be done! If your paranoid like me you can take a fork and stick it in to the potatoes to make sure there done! Ours were perfect!
Sprinkles cheese on the potatoes immediately for a delicious summer side that won't heat up your house to make! Enjoy!
